Summary of "📊Chandelier Indicator for MetaTrader 4/5 Download – Free – [TFlab]"
The video provides a detailed tutorial and guide on the Chandelier Indicator available for download on the Trading Finder website, compatible with MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms. Key technological and functional aspects of the indicator include:
- Purpose and Functionality: The Chandelier Indicator dynamically draws trend lines on price charts to help traders set and adjust stop-loss levels. It tracks price movements by positioning stop-loss lines below the price during uptrends (red lines) and above the price during downtrends (blue lines). Additionally, it signals trend changes with vertical lines—blue for shifts from uptrend to downtrend, and red for downtrend to uptrend—enhancing traders’ market awareness.
- Usage and Operation: Users can load the indicator by dragging the downloaded file onto their chart from the MetaTrader navigator. Once active, it automatically plots the trend and stop-loss lines.
- Customization and Settings:
The indicator offers extensive configurable options under the inputs section:
- Distance from Price Line: Adjustable as a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR), default set to 3, modifiable to change stop-loss distance dynamically.
- ATR Calculation Period: Default 22 periods, can be changed for sensitivity adjustment.
- Maximum Candles for ATR Display: Default 1,000 candles.
- Indicator Shift: Allows shifting lines forward or backward by a specified number of candles (positive values shift forward, negative backward, zero aligns with the current candle).
- Calculation Type: Choose whether calculations are based on the current or previous candle (default is previous candle).
- Vertical Lines Customization: Set names, dates, colors, line types (solid, dash, dot, dash-dot, dash-dot-dot), and thickness (default 3).
- Display Options: Enable/disable lines behind candles, manual line movement, line extension to chart end, hiding lines in the object list, and prioritizing lines during manual interaction with other chart objects.
